CR5 Magazine is a GEM. The support Lucy and the team give to the local community is fantastic. The free advertising given to local charities and non-profit organisations demonstrates their commitment to not only be the best business advertising medium in the area but to also be the best at helping to build a genuine Community Spirit. Well done and long may the CR5 team continue to give us such an interesting and useful magazine.Daniel Cahane – A Happy Reader – Coulsdon

As the proprietor of Avant Gardens I would like to express in writing my absolute satisfaction with your CR5 publication as an advertising medium.I work at many different addresses in the CR5 area and I notice that the CR5 Magazine is always on display !Thank you Lucy for running CR5 so efficiently and successfully. My phone line is now so hot with enquiries, the birds are unable to perch upon it ! Phillip, Avant Gardeners

I started my own business locally just over a year ago advertising in CR5. Lucy and Marion have been an absolute pleasure to work with, helping me with the entire design of my advert to providing general advice on advertising. The majority of my work has been as a direct result of CR5. I advertise in one other magazine which certainly has not generated anywhere near the amount of enquiries I have received from advertising in CR5. I would recommend advertising in CR5; I will certainly continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Jason King, J.K.Brickwork

Our first year of advertising with CR5 magazine has been very rewarding in terms of enquiries received and name awareness gained. Lucy puts her heart and soul into CR5 and this is clearly reflected in the wide distribution and value placed on her magazine by its recipients. Mark Cooper IFA – Clarity Financial Planning Ltd

Dear Lucy and Marion,

I'm writing to thank you both for helping me when I took over the Slimming World group in Coulsdon, at Chipstead Valley Primary School. You were both very helpful with making sure my advert stood out and from that I have had good response. My group on a Tuesday evening has grown so much that I have had to go to a double session 5.50pm and 7.30pm.

You give good value for money and a personal service. I would recommend you to any business in Coulsdon that wants to advertise.
